[00:08.839]The warden led a prisoner down the hallway to his doom
[00:17.539]I stood up to say goodbye like all the rest
[00:26.99]And I heard him tell the warden just before he reached my cell
[00:34.920]"Let my guitar playing friend do my request"
[00:41.990]
[00:43.370]Let him sing me back home with a song I used to hear
[00:52.950]Make my old memories come alive
[01:01.600]Take me away and turn back the years
[01:10.10]Sing me back home before I die
[01:16.410]
[01:20.590]I recall last sunday morning a choir from off the street
[01:29.350]Came in to sing a few old gospel songs
[01:38.230]And I heard him tell the singers "There's a song my mama sang.
[01:46.550]Could I hear it once before you move along?"
[01:53.150]
[01:55.150]Won't you sing me back home with a song I used to hear
[02:04.330]Make my old memories come alive
[02:13.169]Take me away and turn back the years
[02:21.929]Sing me back home before I die
[02:28.649]
[02:30.539]Sing me back home before I die
[02:38.109]
